Infowars apologizes for 'Pizzagate' coverage
washingtonexaminer.com ^ | 3/24/17 | Daniel Chaitin

Posted on 03/25/2017 9:37:31 AM PDT by ColdOne

Infowars apologized on Friday for its role in perpetuating the "Pizzagate" conspiracy theory that connected a Washington, D.C., pizza restaurant to a child sex ring run by Hillary Clinton.

Talk show host Alex Jones, an avid Trump supporter who runs the site, went on air to read a statement where he personally apologized to James Alefantis, the owner of Comet Ping Pong, which was repeatedly harassed and threatened for its alleged connection to Pizzagate. It was at that restaurant in December that a man from North Carolina walked in and fired a rifle as he looked for evidence supporting the conspiracy theory that there were underground tunnels through which children were trafficked.

The band uploaded the video they created to their YouTube account.

Seriously, stop dithering on and on. Defend them, that’s your call, I don’t care. But stop acting like Comet Ping Pong’s house band Majestic Apes isn’t pro-pedophile.

They brace it and put it all over their website and videos.

Litttle leaguer,not carrying the right insurance for what he does and obviously doesn’t have the right lawyer. Probably got sued and freaked.

No, from the standpoint that the 9/11 commission report was basically a joke and didn’t speak one word of who the real problem was, the NSA. But the idea that the buildings were blown up with explosive charges and no actual planes flew into buildings, that’s the worst tripe I’ve ever heard. I’ve seen Infowars videos on YouTube, they’re total garbage. Their love of scammer fraud nutcase Jesse Ventura should repel a normal person.

I don’t give a fat crap who Roger Stone is or what he represents. And yes, their 9/11 “insider-job” “truther” stuff is total garbage, as is putting forth the story that Sandy Hook didn’t happen, it was all staged. Infowars is a garbage website.

What’s Roger Stone going to do, come to my house and kick my ass? And yes, their 9/11 “insider-job” “truther” stuff is total garbage, as is putting forth the story that Sandy Hook didn’t happen, it was all staged. Infowars is a garbage website.

After months and months of Pizzagate being on the web or in the news there was was never even one person who came forward to claim having been a victim. No one claimed their child to have been a victim.

Not to the police, not to the press, not posted on reddit or 4chan or anywhere.

It astounds me how so many could miss the obvious fact of the Missing Victims.

At least the Salem Witch Trial had alleged victims who claimed to have been involved.

The same with the McMartin Preschool hysteria back in the 1980s and 90s.

But Pizzagate victims are as abundant as unicorns.

Not that their complete absence will slow down the true believers one iota, because it won’t. If anything the lack of evidence will be considered further proof of the conspiracy.

These geniuses better hope that if they are ever on trial that the jurors judging them won’t be as indifferent to the lack of evidence as they’ve been.

“I mean Jimmy Hoffa has never been found.”

The problem with your logic is that with Pizzagate there is no evidence that a ‘Jimmy Hoffa’ ever lived in order to be missing.

There was never a single child reported missing that could be connected to Pizzagate in even the remotest fashion. Nor one whose parents reported their child was molested or abused or even found in the many photos attributed to Pizzagate.

If you can come up with the name of any victim of Pizzagate you will be the first who has ever managed to do so.

“I cannot believe that many of these debunkers are not paid disinformation agents.”

You mean I could get paid for my irritation with the fools who think that Bad Taste in Grotesque Art equates to evidence?

The ones who haven’t noticed that we haven’t seen a single victim coming forward in what is reported to be a crime involving many victims?

Where do I sign up?

Must have been threatened with lawsuits from Podesta and Brock.

Infowars never broke any Pizzagate stories and just had one interview where it was mentioned.

Strange folks here are calling it ‘conspiracy theory’ when we know a former Speaker of the House and Republican leader went to jail over child sex abuse. Weiner is about to be charged with talking to a 14/15 year old girl.

What’s hard to believe?

For me personally, I’m not an advocate of the “Hillary’s running a child abuse ring out of the basement of Comet Ping Pibg.”

I am however an advocate of exposing what I saw with my own eyes before Alefantis deleted his Instagram. He had sexualized pics of children and bestiality.

His house band has published a video and website paying homage to pedophiles and interspersed their video with images of children and torture. (Including an extremely graphic photo of a boy on a table that I’ll describe no further.)

Does that have anything to do will Hillary’s friend Laura Silsbey being arrested for trying to take 30 kids out of Haiti? No, probably not.

But it does mean that these are the people that fund raise for Hillary. These are the people that John Podesta associates with.

So for me, for those reasons, that’s why what I personally saw matters.

I think that Weiner sent the 15 year old girl a picture of his pecker.

I can’t listen to Jones anymore.

1) the fake growl. Sometimes, he switches it off. It’s hideous. When he says “uuhhh” it sounds like vomiting.

2) the interrupting! If his guests are so boring, why does he invite them. And the interruptions are unintelligible.

Did you know that Alefantis had a partner in the business? Who abruptly quit?

Weiter will flip on the Clintons. No way he’s going to state prison as a pedo. He’d get raped - repeatedly.

If he really kept the goods on the Clintons, Trump and Sessions will have that information - if Comey hasn’t destroyed it already.

Brock and Podesta need to be in jail. Pizzagate will continue until those two are out of politics and in prison.

And a handful of wastebasket fires caused Building Seven to collapse in a perfect controlled demolition.

Don’t you realize that NOTICING actors at Sandy Hook playing multiple roles makes you a despicable person?

Anthony might be weighing his options at this point. Fort Marcy Park or prison rape.

Would not want to be him.

He knows a Sessions can’t help him and he knows Comey won’t.

All that and more. I appreciate your continuing to exchange with people who have no interest in the truth of the matter. Other people read and are informed.
